It's not my fault you were dead the last time Mai got lost.

In the kitchen onboard the Sereni-tree, Seryn industriously sets about steaming and liquidising every vegetable she can find.
Then she realieses that Fin isn't eating solids yet.
"Arrrgh!"
"giggle"
The last however many days spent sleeping sporadically, trying to work out 'diapers' and convincing her bouncing baby boy not to pee everywhere while she does so, and trying not to let cabin fever take hold have left her looking somewhat 'mussed looking' - rather like the women you see stumbling into pubs in the Dales after they've been lost on the moors for a few weeks.
Hearing Horse shoes on the decks outside she watches as first TRM, then Jade, then a whole host of others dressed in western garb disappear into the security office.
"Oooooh! Field trip! I think that might be fun don't you? Shall we go and find some Indians?"
"sucks big toe, blows bubble, squeaks"
"I'll take that as a yes shall I?"
"giggle"
Returning to her room, Seryn dresses in her most suitable leftover bits of piratey stuff, throws all of Fins toys, some clothes and a lifetimes suppy of nappies into her bag and follows it whth the rabbits in their carrier, then includes a tiny weeny pair of fuzzy blue anti-noise ear protectors, and an old shotgun.
"Ok, don't you be watching too close - you ain't shooting things till I say so!"
"burble"
Stopping only to write a note telling SR where she's gone (if they ever see him again) she heads up to the security office, and angling into the fuzzy edges of the portal, ends up in fields full of waving crops, a small camp of tents and some wooden buildings in the distance.
*rubs suncream on Fins head* Lets go see if they're friendly, and if they have one of those nifty papoose things we can trade for - you'll like them - high up, you'll get to see the world a bit"
"burp"
Isn't sanity really a one trick pony, anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking! But when you're good and crazy...ooh hoo hoo hoo... the skys the limit!

*spots the happy triple*
Hi guys. I'm afraid it's time for Sera to get her first round of shots. I could take her to the bay now if that's all right?
You might even be glad of a break for half an hour, eh?

On the Sereni-Tree:
Trey watches the departing back of Serenity go through the portal and then she approaches Soul. She waits until SimonWho is done speaking. “And if you like, Soul, I could take care of little Sera after the Doctor is done and while you are still out. It’ll be fun. I could get help from some of the other Brides.”
SimonWho, Soul, and Trey all glance at the nearby Ace, Bride1, who is intently studying the open portal, waiting for something to step through so that she could have an excuse to kill it.
“Some of the more girly of the Brides,” Trey clarifies.
Trey, Bride3

*JadeHand leads Aluminum, and the captain on board, into the town. As it seems to be approaching evening, very few people notice the new arrivals. JadeHand ties Aluminum to a hitching post near the entrance to a saloon. He checks his Captain to make sure he's secure and well.*
" Captn' I shall return in a few moments, It seems I've some manner of investigatin' to be done. Hopefully the locals are observant..... but not too observant if'n you catch my meanin', sir. Aluminum, you look afta the good Capitain. I'll check back shortly."
*Jadehand strolls into the saloon, and quickly notes the poker tables to the side and sizes up the players. Sadly, he realizes he has none of the local currency. He approaches one of the tables, and with his left hand pulls the pistol on his left hip and spins it about in his hand, then gently sets it on the table.*
"Appologies, getlemen. It appears I've found myself without much coin. I offer this fine Iron for a mere 20 of your dollars. I shall, howeva, have to buy it back from you for 100 dollars in an hours time."
Several men scoff, and one man passes Jade $20.
"I'll take that for 20, no way you'll survive our game on only 20 long enough to buy it back."
*JadeHand Nods to the man, excepts his bills, and passes the man the handgun.*
"You are a betting man, I respect that. But I hope you are mistakn', that's my second favourite gun."
The men at the table let out a brief laugh and "Deal JadeHand in".

Truth In front of my eyes
While I denied
What my heart knows was right."

In Westworld:
As Citizen smacks against the ground with much force, TheRealMe is awakened, startled. “Huh? Oh.” He hops off his hitched-up mount and examines the still-twitching form lying face down in the dirt. TheRealMe turns to address Aluminum. “Well, if I’m not mistaken, this appears to be Citizen from the events surrounding the Boros Incident. We haven’t seen him for a while. How did he get here?”
TheRealMe looks around. "Where IS here, anyway?
TheRealMe shrugs, then he grabs Citizen’s arms and drags him over to prop him up against the hitching post. He pats Aluminum's broad flank.
Citizen’s arms and legs still twitch, occasionally.
TheRealMe thinks about their next step. “Hmmmm… Gathering information is probably the first order of business, I should think. We seem to be in a town. Towns have saloons.
TheRealMe peeks into the saloon to see Jade Holiday playing poker. "So, Doc, it looks like you are way ahead of me!”
OOC: Okay, here are the people who are in the Westworld currently engaged in Mai-Quest 3: TheRealMe in his cowboy outfit and his trusty steed Aluminum, Jadehand shapeshifted into the form of Doc Holiday, Jake7 with her remote control device, TheGreyJedi in a very snazzy period outfit with a cane and a sniper rifle, Serenity in a calico dress and cloak with her swords, Seryn with her new baby, and Citizen who has recently fallen out of the sky.

*on her wrist comm*
Shots! Oh no! Hold on!
*Serenity runs back through the portal, ignoring Ace who quickly raises her blade. She takes her baby out of Soul's arms.*
Okay, sweet little bird, the nice Doctor is going to take you to get some shots so you don't get sick. It'll hurt a bit, but just for a little bit. And then all your Auntie Brides are going to play with you for a bit until Mommy and Daddy get back. Doesn't that found like fun? We'll be back very soon, just as soon as we find Auntie Mai. And your rabbit Toki will be with you the whole time to make sure you're okay. Right Toki?
*Toki, Sera's pink and white rabbit, looks up from the floor at the sound of her name and jumps up onto Serenity's shoulder.*
Doctor, Trey, here's her diaper bag. There's a bottle in there if we're not back in 3 hrs. She can have some of the strained peas in the freezer, too. She'll usually eat about two little cubes. Just warm them up a bit. She should go down for a nap in about an hour, and should get up an hour later. She likes you to sing "Baby Owlet" to her. If she sleeps more than 2 hours, wake her up or she won't sleep at night. She's cutting one of her bottom teeth so she likes to chew on everything. Including Toki, which we're discouraging. And, don't worry if she seems to be losing feathers. She's molting, getting ready for her big girl wings so she can fly. Isn't that right, sweetie? Call me on my commlink if there's any problems and I'll come right back.
*deep breath*
I think that's everything. Thank you for taking care of her for us.
*She kisses her baby and hands her over to SimonWho. Sera immediately tries to put his stethascope in her mouth.*
Ready, Soul? Let's go find Mai.
